2018 Jul – RINA – COMPIT’s Italian job

Halls of noble knights, armours and long swords, magnificent frescoes framing loopholes and battlements scarred from centuries past were the ideal crucible provided by the breathtaking Castello di Pavone for the alchemy that was to take place during COMPIT 2018. More than ever, the lucidity and depth of reflection directed at the all-too-practical issues and questions raised by big data, IoT, simulation, virtual & augmented reality and objective computational limitations will make the COMPIT 2018 proceedings essential reading for those that couldn’t be there.

An investigation has revealed that the master of a Netherlands-registered general cargo vessel Ruyter, which ran aground near Northern Island’s Rathlin Island, had been drinking prior to leaving the bridge unattended before the incident on October 10, 2017.

2018 Jun – Port of Hamburg – HVCC launches unique cooperation

The HVCC Hamburg Vessel Coordination Center and the Rotterdam Port Authority have entered into a cooperative relationship, the likes of which the world has never seen before: from now on, both ports will exchange relevant data through a digital interface so that shipping companies can steer their ships more efficiently and terminals can optimise their resource planning. This cooperation therefore improves the operational processes, while also making both ports more attractive.

The Sea Traffic Management (STM) Validation project is a wide-scale European initiative focused on implementing new digital information exchange services for the shipping and port industries. STM comprises the third stage of this action that was initially defined during the previous projects MONALISA and MONALISA 2.0, all of which are co-funded by the EU within the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T).

In a new Port CDM concept note, the authors examine how the shipping and port industries could benefit from a new kind of contract that will help overcome the limitations of the traditional and sometimes limiting charter party agreements.

The Port of Rotterdam, has hosted an international group discussion on standardised data definitions for the worldwide exchange of nautical information. There was a higher turnout than expected with the industry’s leading international players attending. Standardisation of shipping information is crucial to making more efficient use of sea-going vessels and reducing emissions.

The development of an e-Navigation infrastructure across the global maritime industry will depend on the adoption of standardisation and open platforms. Europe’s STM (Sea Traffic Management) and EfficienSea2 Projects are both working towards creating a lasting impact in both of those areas Before they conclude this year.
